Abstract
A lane outward deviation avoidance assist apparatus includes: a recognition device configured to recognize a travel lane of a vehicle; a deviation recognition part configured to recognize a deviation from the travel lane recognized by the recognition device or a deviation prediction from the travel lane; a control part configured to perform a deviation avoidance control for avoiding the deviation from the travel lane at least by a steering; and a deviation number count part configured to count the number of deviations from the travel lane recognized by the deviation recognition part within a predetermined duration or the number of deviation predictions from the travel lane, wherein the control part performs at least any one of the deviation avoidance control and an alarm output control when the number counted by the deviation number count part reaches n, n being a natural number more than 1.
